When a pin is moved along the principal axis of a small concave mirror, the image position coincides with the object at a point 0.5m from the mirror. If the mirror is placed at a depth of 0.2m in a transparent liquid, the same phenomenon occurs when the pin is placed 0.4m from the mirror. find the refractive index of the liquid shown in fig.

Answer»


Solution :`|R|=0.5 m` (from first case)
In the SHOWN figure, OBJECT appears at DISTANCE
`d=mu_e(0.2)+0.2`
Now, for IMAGE to further coincide with the object,
`d=|R|`
SOLVING we get, `mu_e=1.5`
